Crash leads to removal in 2012
An automobile crash occurred on April 26, 2012 during which the Sarasota copy of the statue was struck by a car and was damaged. "The impact knocked about a 3-foot-wide hole out of the sailor's foot and added more hairline cracks to its frame.This led to the statue being taken down by the city, which laid the statue onto its side, close to the site, while insurance companies negotiate over liability and repair issues.
From Wikipedia
A local landmark harking back to a nostalgic time that was damaged when a car crashed into it in April has found its way back to town.
